I’m free! I’m finally free! My last final was today and now I can spend the next four days doing whatever I want to do (almost) before summer semester begins Monday. Then I have to dedicate the next two months to contemporary literature, physical fitness, and a counseling class. I’m sick and the kids are sick, so what’s better than staying in bed on a cool California day and reading as many books as I can? For some reason I thought Mother Reader’s 48 Hour Reading Challengestarts this weekend, but I was wrong. It starts next weekend and last whatever 48 hours you pick. But I’m too excited to wait. I think this weekend I’m just going to throw my own reading spree. The kids and I will have our own books and journals, plus snacks to eat. We’ll just hang out around the house reading, eating, and watching movies that are adapted from books. I can’t wait to see The Secret Garden.
